Entertainment, I only like to make movies

Chapter 302 A List, Stirring the Entertainment Situation
"In 2012, the Forbes rich list was released, and the chairman of Wahaha ranked first, becoming the richest man in China!"

"Fang Ziheng, an international director, has a net worth of 175 billion. At the age of 25, he entered the top [-] on the list and became the youngest billionaire in China."

"175 billion! Fang Ziheng beat Wang Zhongjun, chairman of Huayi Brothers, to the top of the wealth list in the film and television industry."

"From a graduate of Nortel to an international director, to the youngest millionaire in Huaguo, Fang Ziheng only took four years!"

"The film and television industry is promising. First, Hua Yi Brothers has a market value of 580 billion, and then there is director Fang Ziheng, who has become a billionaire!"

The Internet has completely exploded.

Entertainment news, economic news, social news, business news..
In addition to the two major categories of people's livelihood and politics, almost all news categories reported the news that Fang Ziheng became a billionaire.

When many people saw the news, they subconsciously refused to believe it, thinking that the Forbes list was wrong.

It's outrageous.

A director, a 25-year-old director who has only made a few films, how could he earn so much money in four years.

impossible!
Absolutely not capable!
The internet fans, Fang Ziheng's fans, and colleagues from major film and television companies who have dealt with him for a long time did not believe this report.

It doesn't matter if you don't believe it!

The Forbes list will be shot.

When the Forbes wealth list, and then announced the careers of the new billionaires, after citing the projects that Hengyu Media participated in the investment.

You have to believe it or not.

The market value of Tudou Video is 150 billion, and Hengyu Media holds 50.1% of the shares, which is 75 billion soft sister coins.

The second is Sina Weibo. The latest valuation given by major investment banks is US$35 billion to US$40 billion.

Hengyu Media accounts for 15% of the shares, about 5 million US dollars, equivalent to 37 billion soft sister coins.

The shares of these two companies alone are a wealth of over [-] billion, not to mention that Hengyu Media also holds Qidian Chinese Network, a source of creative IP.

Hengyu Game Company, Hengyu Cinema Company, Tiantiandongting APP, and the UC mobile browser that has just invested.

After careful calculation, Fang Ziheng's wealth is still a lot less.

The Forbes list mainly counts several Internet platforms that Tudou Video and Hengyu have invested in.

The main business of Hengyu Media is not included in the calculation at all.

Only then did people know that Fang Ziheng's net worth was worthless.

.........

Huayi Brothers headquarters.

After looking through the Forbes list in his hand, Wang Zhongjun was a little bit aggrieved when he was higher than the list.

He is also on the list this time.

Ranked 120th with a fortune of 40 billion, Shi Yuzhu, who managed health care products and online games, successfully surpassed the veteran tycoon.

In addition to him, Wang Zhonglei is also on the list, ranking 70th on the wealth list with a wealth of 97 billion.

Originally, it was a great joy in life for the two brothers to be on the list together.

But Fang Ziheng happened to be there, overtaking on a bend in just a few years, overtaking the two brothers.

What a freak!

Wang Zhongjun cursed secretly, picked up the phone and called his younger brother Wang Zhonglei, asking him to come over to his office.

After a while, Wang Zhonglei opened the door and walked in with a happy face.

"Brother, you are looking for me!"

"I was just about to ask you. I'm going to buy a big villa in Shanghai. Do you want it? The two of us will buy it together, so we can visit each other during the Chinese New Year."

As soon as he entered the door, Wang Zhonglei complained that he had a net worth of 70 billion, so he had to think carefully about how to spend it.

"We'll talk about it later in the villa. Sit down, I have something serious to tell you."

Wang Zhongjun twitched his mouth, pointed to the seat in front of the desk and said in a deep voice.

His younger brother is good at everything, but he loves to play too much.

Luxury cars, villas, female celebrities, making friends and organizing dinners, there is nothing this guy doesn't like.

When will you be able to mature!

Wang Zhongjun shook his head sadly, opened the drawer and took out a stack of invitation letters, saying, "Zhonglei, it's time for the company to make a move."

"This year's Lunar New Year and Spring Festival files are particularly important. The three films "600", "Zodiac", and "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" all have the potential to explode. Can the company's stock price break through the [-] billion mark? Just look at the last shiver at the end of the year!"

"This is the invitation letter for the premiere of "[-]". You should personally go and deliver it to the guests."

These invitation letters were personally written by him, the chairman, and the invited guests were very important.

"Oh so many!"

Wang Zhonglei looked surprised, accepted the invitation function and counted.

There are twelve cards in total, representing twelve heavyweight guests.

"No problem, I'm leaving tomorrow."

Wang Zhonglei nodded, and responded immediately.

Although I don't know why my brother suddenly accelerated the promotion of "[-]", public relations shakers are his specialty
This kind of thing is a piece of cake, and I can go out and make more friends, which is really flattering.

At the same time, Wang Zhonglei also thinks that Hua Yi should show off his muscles, and he can't always let Hengyu Media focus on the front.

Today this movie is released, tomorrow that movie is a big hit, stirring up the entire entertainment industry to be restless.

For a long time, Huayi's leading position will be lost!
Since 2010, the number of blockbuster films released by Huayi Investment has gradually decreased, and none of the major projects under its control has become a big hit.

If it hadn't been for Hengyu Media's participation in popular film projects such as "Looking for the Dragon", the stock price of Huayi would never have soared so fast.

Of course, the vigorous development of the film market has also benefited Huayi a lot.

With the title of the first film and television stock in the mainland, Hua Yi is very well-known outside the circle, and it is the first choice of film and television stocks for many investors in the secondary market.

Wang Zhonglei may not be as far-sighted as his brother Wang Zhongjun, and lacks a little vigilance to plan for a rainy day.

But he has been in the entertainment circle and film and television industry for many years, and he knows that Huayi is now at a critical moment.

This year, Huayi has three blockbuster films.

Among them, Huayi is the master of publishing "[-]" and "Zodiac", and participated in "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons".

"Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" was released by Hengyu Media with a guarantee, and Huayi recovered the cost in advance and made a lot of money.

However, things didn't work out that way.

Huayi is a listed company, whether it is in charge of the distribution or participating in the investment, as long as the movie is released, the box office will be reflected in the company's stock price.

The three blockbuster films, each of which is a blockbuster, is the cornerstone of Hua Yi's stock price growth. It is best not to have any problems.

Here, the two brothers are thinking together how to make the premiere of "[-]" more impressive and successful.

On the other side, Alibaba headquarters.

In Hang Chengma's office, he was also holding a Forbes list and was a little lost.

This year, he ranked 214th on the list with a wealth of 11 billion, only 10 billion soft sister coins away from No.40 Xu Jiaying.

He believes that his ranking will increase next year, and he may even become the richest man in a few years.

He is not a superficial person, and the reason for his loss of consciousness was not because of his own wealth, but because he saw Fang Ziheng not far behind the list.

175 billion!
The afterlife is terrifying!
No wonder he didn't accept Ali's investment!

Anyone who has such a huge family at such a young age will not condescend to others.

If it were him, Hang Chengma, who earned tens of billions of dollars when he was 20, he would probably be even more arrogant than Fang Ziheng.

Almost instantly, Hang Chengma understood the reason for Hengyu's continuous refusal of Alibaba's shareholding.

He looked at Shao Xiaoli who was waiting on the sofa, raised the wealth list in his hand, and said with a helpless smile: "Xiaoli, please go back and inform the strategic investment department to stop the plan to inject capital into Hengyu Media."

"Okay, Chairman!"

Shao Xiaoli came here today to report on the link to Youku video and the establishment of Ali's entertainment business group.

He has already read the rich list, so he naturally understands the meaning of the Ma dialect in Hangcheng.

Fang Ziheng is a person that Alibaba cannot recover.

He, the secretary-general of Alibaba's board of directors and the chairman of Alibaba Pictures Group, is several grades behind Fang Ziheng in terms of accumulated wealth.

But one thing is for sure!
The film and television industry and the entertainment industry are promising, and Ali is on the right path to speed up the establishment of a large entertainment business group.

Immediately, Shao Xiaoli proposed to Hang Chengma to speed up the reorganization of Youku and the acquisition of UC and Weibo shares.

While listening to the report, Hang Chengma pointed out the obstacles encountered in acquiring several platforms.

Generally speaking, Hang Chengma will not personally intervene in projects that are less than 30 billion.

However, the acquisition of UC Browser, Weibo, and the establishment of a large entertainment business are all three major events, none of which is unusual.

He, the helm of Ali, must personally intervene.

After listening to the report, Hang Chengma's face completely calmed down, and he said lightly: "I heard that last time Hengyu Media took the first step to take 20% of the shares of UC Browser."

"Yes, I'm to blame for this incident. I didn't communicate with the strategic investment department in time, which led to a good acquisition opportunity."

Shao Xiaoli nodded slowly, showing shame.

His heart was in a different situation, and he couldn't help but sigh at Fang Ziheng's gaze.

Fang Ziheng's move has accurately calculated the importance of UC to Alibaba.

Get in touch with UC founder He Xiaopeng first, grab 20% of the shares, and make Alibaba's plan to control UC fail.

In this way, if Ali wants to win UC, he has to get He Xiaopeng and Hengyu Media at the same time.

As long as one of the two parties is unwilling to sell shares, or drags on for a year or so, it will cause a strong obstacle to Ali's strategic goals.

Not to mention the establishment of a large entertainment business group, even Ali's hidden traffic plan will be in vain.

As an important person connecting Ali headquarters and Ali Pictures Group, Shao Xiaoli sees this clearly.

He looked at Hangcheng horse expectantly, hoping to hear encouraging words and news from this super swordsman.

really.

After learning the details, Hangcheng Ma suddenly stood up from the boss's chair, with a wild expression, and immediately changed into another person.

"Acquisition, continue to initiate acquisitions!"

"Let the strategic investment department talk about it one by one. Isn't it just money? Businessmen value profits. What is the current valuation of UC? Double it for me!"

I don't believe it anymore, He Xiaopeng and UC's shareholders won't be tempted to see the white money! "

The extremely confident and flying tone spit out from Hangcheng Ma's mouth.

It seems that he has returned to the time when he was doing ideological work with his subordinates. At this moment, the Hangcheng horse is like a god of war possessed, and his spirit soars to its peak state.

This state will only appear on him when he encounters Jian Lie Xinxi's affairs.

A few words touched Shao Xiaoli's heart and made him very excited.

Damn it!
It’s still fun to buy, buy, buy, and double the valuation of UC, and you can get a few more money!

Shao Xiaoli slapped his thigh fiercely, stood up with Hangcheng Ma, and said without thinking: "Chairman, last time UC was valued at 12 billion US dollars. After introducing Hengyu Media's 9 million cash and content, I estimate that it is worth about 20 billion US dollars." Knife!"

"If it is doubled, it will be at most 50 billion U.S. dollars!"

"Okay, you inform Lao Cai and ask him to lead the team to UC in person, and we will talk for 50 billion US dollars."

"I only have one request, to take all the shares of UC!"

With a big wave of his hand, Hang Chengma gave Shao Xiaoli a strategic order with great arrogance.

"Yes, I'll do it right away!"

Shao Xiaoli looked serious, turned around and left without saying a word, and was going to contact Lao Cai who was in the horse's mouth in Hangzhou as soon as possible.

Lao Cai's name is Cai Zhongzhong, the executive vice chairman of Alibaba's board of directors, and previously served as Ali's chief financial officer. In August this year, he was fully responsible for the strategic investment of Alibaba Group.

The indirectness of a rich list made Huayi and Ali Film Group speed up the pace of deploying the film and television industry.

Not only that, Xiao Ma, who is far away in Shencheng, and the king of Wanda Group, also turned their attention to the film and television industry because of Fang Ziheng's rise.

Especially the Shencheng horse, with the same idea as the Hangcheng horse, wants to take advantage of the good time to set foot in the film and television industry and lay down a pan-entertainment territory.

Teng training headquarters.

In his office, Shencheng Ma invited Cheng Wu, the person in charge of Tengxun Mutual Entertainment, Sun Zhong from Tengxun Video, and Liu Zhiping, CEO of Tengxun Group.

"Three, time is waiting for no one else. The film and television industry is becoming more and more popular. Tengxun must speed up the pace to improve the layout of the industrial chain."

In the office, Shencheng Ma Duan sat on the main seat in the sofa area, and said to Cheng Wu, Sun Zhong, and Liu Zhiping on both sides.

On the coffee table in front of him, there is a 2012 Forbes rich list.

"Mr. Ma, our speed is already very fast. The major novel platforms acquired not long ago have now been connected, and the newly established Chuangshi Chinese website has also occupied 30% of the market share!"

Among the three, Sun Zhong was the first to speak.

Only he, the person in charge of the Tengxun video, understands why Shenchengma wants to speed up the industrial layout.

Once the Forbes list was released, Fang Ziheng's net worth was exposed to the public, and also appeared in the eyes of countless capitalists.

There are tens of billions of rich people in the film and television industry!
Also appeared two.

What does this mean?
Naturally illustrates the prospects of this industry.

If two tens of billionaires can be produced, there can be three, five, or even ten.

Everyone knows with their toes that the muddy waters of the film and television industry will gather more and more capital predators.

The capital is at the end, competing for the huge cake of this sunrise industry.

Tengxun has already entered the market ahead of time and has taken an advantage. The next goal is to seize this opportunity and even go further to grab more markets.

Sun Zhong understands Hangcheng Ma's thoughts very well, but understanding is understanding, and things always have to be done step by step.

Tengxun Interactive Entertainment, Tengxun Pictures, Tengxun Video, Tengxun Games, Tengxun Animation, Tengxun Literature.

Several major entertainment companies have just been established, and apart from games, none of them can carry the banner.

Even if you want to speed up your pace, you must have a project!

Ali Pictures has also made two films, "Seven Star Lu Wang" and "To Youth". What does Teng Xun have?
Make bricks without straw!

Sun Zhong said that I understand, but there is really nothing I can do.

Following his words, the office suddenly fell silent.

Cheng Wu and Liu Zhiping also understood what Shencheng Ma was referring to, and turned their brains to quickly think about the method of speeding up.

After much deliberation, the two of them only thought of one solution!
That is to engage in projects, film projects, TV drama projects.

The two looked at each other, and Cheng Wu was the first to say: "Mr. Ma, if you have to speed up your pace, you can only invest in movies and TV drama projects."

"Oh, tell me in detail." Hangcheng Ma smiled encouragingly, signaling Cheng Wu to continue.

"Whether it's a movie or a TV series, a project has several major processes. From preparation, project approval, shooting, review, publicity, and release, each hurdle can drive the development of related businesses."

"For example, a film with an investment of over [-] million, from film preparation to film release, can open up the popularity of Tengxun Mutual Entertainment, Tengxun Video, and Tengxun Pictures in the early stage.

In the mid-term, the first-line production capabilities of Tengxun Pictures will be enhanced, and in the later stage, it will be able to drive the development of Tengxun games and Tengxun literature, and drive the user activity of the two platforms. "

Cheng Wu's words made Shencheng Ma's eyes light up.

It is a good way to drive development through projects.

As a top expert in the product line, Shencheng Ma realized the benefits of this suggestion in an instant.

Investing in and controlling a blockbuster movie will revitalize Tengxun's big entertainment business in an instant.

Dry!
Must do!
Thinking of this, he immediately made up his mind to continue to learn from Alibaba Pictures Group.

"In this way, with Tengxun Pictures as the mainstay, Tengxun Mutual Entertainment, and Tengxun Video as supplements, the three companies will jointly invest and control a movie!"

"The total investment is set at 2 million, no, at least 3 million soft sister coins!"

"We, Tengxun, either don't make it, or we have to make a blockbuster movie. If you have any good ideas for the type of movie, everyone can speak freely."

"There is also the starring role of the movie, I think Li Lianjie can be invited!"

When it comes to making movies, Shencheng Ma also gets excited.

The more he talked, the more excited he became, as if he was talking about new products with the employees of Tencent's product research and development center. Before the title of the movie was confirmed, he wanted to let Jie Ge play the leading role.
